It could be, but I doubt it. The Switch will probably have at max about one million systems, and Horizon will likely do in the 500k range or so (maybe more, maybe less, hard to tell with a new IP). I know GTA 5 released on a non-holiday month, and it's going to be hard to compete with that monster when there were more than 60 million ps3 and 360's in US homes back then. 

I would say that the Switch has a really good chance to sell the initial 2 million initial units, due to the pre-order selling out, maybe even a bit more if Nintendo manages to make some more in time, but other than that I agree with you.

Oh yeah, I agree with that completely, I just thought that 2 million was a worldwide number. My 1 million guess for the Switch is just for the US, based upon their estimate of 2 million worldwide. I think they're going to sell whatever they ship, at least to North America and Asia. Europe I'm less certain about, especially since Amazon UK still has Switch in stock (or at least they did last night) which is a bit surprising to me, I have to admit. I think the Switch is going to do quite well.
